10/10 Exceptional

Great location. Good place for a few nights.

Great location! It was great to be 2 minutes from train station. Our quad room was large and well-appointed. Water was very hot, and bathroom was updated. The staff was excellent. Special shout out to Dylan and Rita: it was great to see their smiling faces for breakfast each morning. The pub was a nice place to spend downtime. The wifi was a bit wonky at times, but since we weren't there on a business trip, it didn't matter much.

Kathy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed here for a couple of nights in a double twin room. Would certainly recommend! Though you can tell the building itself is a bit on the older side, the furniture and hotel itself is well kept and updated. Our room was clean and ready for us when we arrived early. Hotel breakfast was good as well! Walking distance of everything in Galway. Would stay here again.

Very central hotel

Eyre square hotel is so close to both bus and train station. There is a shop across the road from it if you have forgotten something or are feeling peckish. Within walking distance to lively pubs and restaurants.
